Lenovo has now officially announced its full lineup of Windows 8 based tablets, ultrabooks and convertible notebooks, including the first dual-core Intel Atom based IdeaTab Lynx.

The new IdeaPad Lynx is built around a 11.6-inch IPS screen with 1366x768 resolution and it's based on Intel's new CloverView dual-core Atom CPU working at 1.8GHz. The rest of the specs include 2GB or RAM memory and 32 or 64GB of flash storage.

Unlike the rest of the lineup, the IdeaPad Lynx is a more of a traditional tablet that will be available with an optional keyboard dock. Although Lenovo did not reveal any details regarding the battery life of the tablet itself, the did not that it will be able to hold out for up to 16 hours when paired up with the keyboard dock.

In addition to the extended battery life, the keyboard dock will also add two USB 2.0 ports. The tablet itself has micro USB, micro HDMI and a microSD card slot.

The new IdeaTab Lynx will be available as of October 26th with a price tag set at US $599. The keyboard dock, of course, adds US $149 to the price tag.

Intel has spoken about its future plans to some of its partners and we can tell you that Atom Z670 won't be its only tablet strategy for the time to come. We found out that Intel has a product name Atom Z2700 and you can tell from the structure that this new Atom has some similarities with the soon to be launched Cedar View M new Atom netbook platform.

In Intel's world Z stands for low power and the new Atom for tablet is likely based on CloverView 32nm core, but this is something that we will have to double check. Let’s hope that CloverView 32nm Atom is better than the Clowerfield movie.

Once Intel start selling it, it will sell for $52, much better price than current Atom Z670 that sells for $75 or slower Atom Z650 that sells for $64.

According to some additional intelligence we gathered, the current plan is that Atom Z670 remains the dominant tablet CPU from Intel at least until Q4 2011 with possible faster versions after that time. In the worst case scenario Atom Z670 or similar Oak Trail products might be the only choice for fanless design from Intel until Q2 2012, but it is still not fixed.
